RE: [ACFUG Discuss] useful tools
My favorite MITM proxy is, and has been for a long time, Paros. WebScarab has some other interesting features, but a crappy UI. -dhs On November 28, 2006, Charlie Arehart wrote: If you like that, Steven, do also consider Firebug if you've not before: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1843/ And for non-Firefox users, still another option like them (and also free) is Fiddler: http://www.fiddlertool.com/fiddler/ All these are great tools for understanding what's going on between your browser and the server, and useful not just for debugging Flash apps but also Ajax, Flex, and even traditional web-based apps.

RE: [ACFUG Discuss] useful tools
Good point, Steven, and thanks for sharing the additional ones, Dean. This discussion has motivated me to create a list of these and several other alternative http debugging proxies, which I now have at http://www.systemanage.com/cff/considering_products.cfm#proxy. This is a place that I've long offered lists of tools related to working with CFML. I've heard people mention so many different ones over the past year or two that I thought it worth cataloging. I also decided to blog this particular list at http://carehart.org/blog/client/index.cfm/2006/11/28/alternative_http_debugg ing_proxies, for those who may not notice the list on the older systemanage.com site. (Some day I'll reconcile the two, or bring the products page over to carehart.org.) I welcome comments or additional proxies there or here. /Charlie http://www.carehart.org/blog/ -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dean H.

Re: [ACFUG Discuss] useful tools
Hi, As Charlie Arehart mentioned earlier, Firebug is a nice to have plugin if you want to traverse DOM Tree or do JavaScript debugging. I use Firebug extensively. The other plugin I would recommend is Web Developer plugin. Here is the url http://chrispederick.com/work/webdeveloper/ You can do almost everything from html editing, css editing, x y coor, images, comments and the list goes on. I am not sure about http requests but this tool is very good as it supports live editing. You can do live editing in Firebug also but with restrictions. Others I use sometimes are ViewSourceWith http://dafizilla.sourceforge.net/viewsourcewith/ ViewSourceChart.http://jennifermadden.com/ I love ViewSourceChart... Very nice plugin Thanks, Ajas Mohammed.
